Stunning location with amazing views

The location of this hotel is stunning, with the pool at the very top of the complex. There is a lot of climbing up stairs and slopes to get anywhere, but well worth it and I suppose the clue is in the name of "Cliff" Beach resort. The majority of the other hotels etc are at sea level and further along this east coast, so many have virtually no sun during the day, whilst due to the height of the pool are here, you can get sun well into the afternoon. Staff are very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was very good. By far the best place to stay on the islane in my oinion.

This is an older property, that was a peaceful and enjoyable place to stay. The staff were professional, attentive, and friendly. I really liked being up in a higher hillside setting, for the views. The top deck pool was a great place to hang out, and scan the horizon. There are plenty of additional restaurants along the beach. The property is on a hillside, which means climbing a lot of stairs. This was fine for me, as I am in good shape.

The pool was amazing. For mid-seventy year old folks, the steps were a little bit of a challenge and better hand rails would be an added plus. Walking the beach at high tide was very dangerous. Therefore, the path/walk to the neighboring resorts should be more developed and obvious.

I’d stay again. Property looks like it once would host more people. Staff great. Rooms clean housekeeping good. Food available was good. Included breakfast was typical Thai buffet omelet station, toast. Pancakes French toast Thai noodles sliced ham Thai sausages fresh fruit salad. Coffee cereal etc. only negatives perhaps it’s at end of beach. When you get off speed boat they will transfer you by long boat up the beach. Also hotel is built on the hillside so if you have mobility issues prob not a good choice Wonderful infinity pool at top. No beach though. Have to walk down a path 100 feet to hit the gorgeous km of beach As is typical, lots of garbage strewn in areas off the beach which is sad. Very quiet island. Stat there to enjoy relaxing, get a massage or two, and chill Beautiful water

ver get bored of the views!

3 night stay in January 2020. Fantastic views from the whole hotel, rooms, pool and restaurant. Nice breakfast included, nice breeze across hotel areas. Restaurant food was nice. Rooms spacious and comfy. Beach and snorkelling are easy to access at the front. Nicer beach for swimming just along the beach. The next restaurant along the beach is called Light my fire, very nice food and music and staff, recommended. Arranged speed boat back to Koh Lanta with the hotel at a decent price. You can easily walk the length of the beach and see the other hotels and restaurants along the beach. Nice and quiet. WiFi fine in room and throughout hotel.

Definitely recommended!

The room was great, clean and spacious. The pool was not overly busy which meant it was a great spot for peace and quiet. The views are incredible - from the pool especially but also from the rooms. I stayed in 520 which was close to the pool and at the top of the resort. There is a golf buggy they use to run you up the hill which is brilliant in the heat! Breakfast was average, options limited. Dinner at the restaurant was great - brilliant service and good food. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I booked boat tickets from the reception and also did a snorkeling/island tour. Wifi available with a strong connection (including video calls). Located at one end of the beach it's tucked away but it is easy to walk along the beach and find other places to eat/have drinks. Overall a fabulous stay and I would certainly recommend for a quiet getaway.

It is less busy and less tourist, you can have the beach to swim all for yourself at times. The staffs are very attentive and friendly. Either you want authentic Thai food or Western fair, they can accommodate very well, and the seafood here is as fresh as the ocean can provide. I really feel like it was the real vacation for a very long time.

Wonderful view from the room and swimming pool

The view from the room facing Andaman sea and hills in it was amazing. Swimming pool on the top is the one of the best things of this resort. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. You need to walk to the room, which are on the top of the hill - for older people it could be problematic.

Stair-exercising hotel with a braethtaking view

Overall ok hotel with a bit remote location at the end of the long beach. The on the hillside climbed up hotel is a trade off between not staying strait on a swimmable beach and the breathtaking view that the altitude gives. Hotel resturant is the only place that you can eat dinner at, but it is also really good. Prepare for stair-exercise

False marketing! Big disappointment!

Me and my husband booked Cliff beach resort for three nights, and we were really looking forward to our visit. We watched the beautiful pictures on the booking site and read about the private beach, the spa/massage with the view over the turquoise ocean and so on. We planned to relax and just enjoy the hotel with all the amenities. Turned out that we just wanted to escape the place. The pictures on the booking sites are very old. The hotel doesn't look like the pictures at all. There is no spa/massage in the building. When we asked the staff they told us they could arranged for a boat to pick us up and take us to the hotel owners other resort on the other side of the beach. - Swimming/sunbathing/relax at daytime On the Internet the hotel says they have a private beach, but that's not much of a beach, there is no way anyone could swim there. It's really shallow and rocky. If you want to take a swim you have to walk at least 500m to another side of the beach. Pool area has a gorgeous view and the pool is nice and clean but that's it. Everything is broken and falling apart. No cushions on the broken sun beds, no pool towels, no service. - Food Breakfast buffet is small. Not many things to chose from. Flies all over the salad. Lunch at the pool bar was bad too. I found a small cockroach in my pizza!!! The fried food tasted like bad oil/butter, and the beer was warm. Dinner was the best of the worst. Food tastes okay, nothing more, and it was lukewarm. Wouldn't eat there

Worst Vacation Ever.

My vacation was ruined thanks to the management of this hotel. I paid in advance several weeks before the trip, however they said due to a booking error they did not have a room for me and dumped me down the beach a their busy and run down sister resort. If they can't promise you a room you paid for in advance, I absolutely wouldn't stay here! Management were terrible at resolving the situation, no matter how angry or upset I was.

Amazing views and peaceful place to rest

We booked this hotel for the amazing views of the island, we werent disappointed!! Beautiful views from our hotel room and from lovely rooftop pool. Breakfast was included snd was ok..they have an egg station and cook omlettes, fried/boiled eggs, etc. Koh ngai is quite isolated and there are not really any shops and certainly mno ATMs so make sure you have enough money/supplies.

Best views in Koh Ngai

Lovely hotel with probably the best views in Koh Ngai from the cliff top pool. Staff were all fantastic and the food was really good and excellent value for money. You could stay at the sister hotel at the other end of the beach which is probably at bit more luxurious but you would miss out on the view which is well worth the climb if the golf buggy isnt working! Would def stay here again

Lovely with Caveats

We had a pleasant stay at the hotel over Christmas 2014. The staff strove to make our time comfortable and we enjoyed the Christmas Eve event. We had two complaints however. Firstly, we had to make requests often twice before they were followed through as English was limited and anything out of the norm was not understood. Secondly, we found the excursion fees would change radically from one day to the next. We were grossly over-charged for our transfer from Koh Ngai to Ao Nang on a packed speed boat and a public ferry, charged double what fellow travelers paid. I would recommend booking those items ahead of time. The Emerald Cave ($36 for 4 persons) was magical and highly recommended.

Loved this hotel

I loved my stay here, the views were spectacular and the calm and peaceful surroundings were very much needed. Infinity pool was just amazing. Room was very big, clean and they clean daily. Breakfast was buffet style and again with amazing views. Internet was a bit spotty at times so I just sat in the lobby to book flights etc. I would not recommend this for the elderly as the hills and stairs up to the pool are quite steep. On arrival they golf cart your luggage up which was nice. Will definitely return!
